USCIS has a new resisigned green card and EAD that will start issuing starting May 1st. This is said to be the next generation one to make fraud extremely difficult. A few changes include enhanced graphics, no signature as well as no optical stripe behind the card.

Now that's interesting!

It's been 5 months since I sent my I-751 application. No update from my end.

Any update from anyone else who filed I-751 with CSC in Dec 2016?

If USCIS sends at least an RFE to any of the Dec 2016 filers, it will give an indication that they have started looking into our I-751 applications. I am eagerly watching this thread to see an update from Dec 2016 filers. 

Immigration Journey

 

  • On L-1B visa for about 1.5 years before getting my F1 visa.
  • F1 (2 years) to OPT (6 months) to H-1B (8 years; Had an approved I-140 and extended my H-1B beyond 6 years) to Conditional GC (3 years 3 months) to Permanent GC.
  • I had earned 40 credits in Social Security, submitted I-864W when filing for I-130.
  • Husband and I are both Indians by birth. Husband became a naturalized USC in July 2014 and I applied for AOS in August 2014.

As far as I know, nobody in here has heard anything! I keep popping in here to check to see if there's been any updates too but I think we'll be waiting a good few months yet unfortunately..

5 months is too early according to current processing times considering the fact that they're now processing June 7th 2016. If this trend continues which will, December 2016 filers at CSC will start seeing results in November 2017.

Per one of the threads on Visajourney, one October 2016 filer at CSC has received an interview letter for I-751 adjudication. So I was wondering whether USCIS might start looking into Dec 2016 applications in a month or so. When it comes to USCIS process/processing time, your guess is as good as mine.

You may want to take a look at the June (and May...!) filers' threads, as there are plenty there that have yet to be approved. I would say one can expect an approval in 11-12 months, based on both official USCIS processing time (June 7 on https://egov.uscis.gov/cris/processTimesDisplayInit.do), as well as VJ users' experience. 

 

 Unfortunately, the October 2016 filer with an interview date seems to be an exception, not the rule.

F-1 Visa: Academic years 2007/2010.

K-1 Visa: I-129F sent Aug 2013; Approved Jan 2014.

Green Card: AOS sent Feb 2014; Approved Jan 2015.

Removal of Conditions: I-751 sent Nov 2016; Approved Apr 2018.

US Citizenship: Application sent Nov 2017; Fingerprints Nov 2017; Civics/English exam March 2018; Oath May 2018.

Nearly 6 months today since I filed. Back before filing I thought I'd be close to being done with this by now, but it seems there's still a long way to go haha

I think the fact that you don't hear ANYTHING makes it worse, like you'd at least like to know that things are moving along but you hear absolutely nothing after Biometrics, but let's be honest, we all know they just stack them in a pile for over half a year
